A "Whack-a-mole" delimama, cleaning the same sites over and over due to lack of a true plan to deal with the unhoused. Close off, fence and secure sites to prevent/reduce sites from being re-populated. Even if temporary fencing, it may help and save money and time...

Repeal measure 110 arrest offenders, stop enabling bad behavior, the lefts plan is obviously hurting, not helping. We need to get America hard on crime and help Police, the border MUST be closed! The definition of insanity is to keep doing the same (dumb) things and expect different outcomes.

Parking and city revenue out weigh the small gain in revenue the business say they receive.

Simply, they're unfair to other businesses. Each space represents potential income for one or multiple businesses. If parklettes are to remain, businesses should file an application per space with an associated annual fee, subject to increase rent cost/year. They cause more problems than they solve.

I don't shop downtown or eat due to lack of parking.

Since nobody sits outside in the cold of winter, why not remove all the outdoor eating areas at least in the winter??

Nobody is sitting outside in the winter months and Street dining should be limited May - October months. Also what is not needed is 4 season dining in these structures (walls. Heaters, etc) when restaurants have room inside. If eateries don't have room inside, shouldn't be taking public space

A few circles around the area, I always find a spot. It’s not any different than any other city. I like seeing people enjoying the outdoors. That’s why we live here.

NO, with all the info out there about scams, it is inexcusable for anyone savvy to be taken in by such. However, seniors are particularly vulnerable, and family should assist them in avoiding scams. I had to take away my mother's phone when she entered assisted living and later memory care.
